Approaching the 700m, shifted in when insufficiently clear of BAY OF BENGAL, resulting in that horse having to be checked and subsequently was taken in onto WANNA TWEET. Raced wide without cover throughout.

Steward Comment

Lost its near fore plate in running. Approaching the 700m was taken in by BAY OF BENGAL who had to check to avoid the heels of TRAVERS who shifted in when insufficiently clear. Jockey Over raced during the early and middle stages of the event. Jockey R. Olivera was advised to exercise more care when shifting ground in future.
